The majority of graduate student funding is awarded through the department in the form of either:
Awards and Scholarships
The Environmental Studies Program also offers awards and scholarships for which our studens may apply to.
Teaching & Research Assistantships
Departments may award teaching assistantships, which provide a stipend, tuition waiver and partial insurance coverage. All full-time graduate students in good standing are eligible for these appointments.
Students are encouraged to apply for graduate student research assistantships with faculty members at the University of Colorado. Individual faculty members, the Graduate Coordinator, or participating departments can be contacted for additional information. Candidates with a strong quantitative background and with computer expertise are particularly welcome. Good initiative and communication skills are essential.
